Both suffering critical life threatening medical conditions. Approximately 25 personnel responded to this situation. The patients did not suffer injuries related to the accident. @DCPoliceDept investigating.”

J. reported just before 10pm: “1st and K NE. Man collapsed in the street, looks like a possible overdose. Nearby bikers protected him from traffic until EMS arrived. Man was alive and moving.

Two definite ODs. Nice that the community responded and called it in, Narcan is free at CVS and if you’re using, so are fentynl test strips. Stay safe y’all.
